NOW ITS MY TURN

NOW IT'S MY TURN

boo!!

{}{}{}

She sat in the parlor

Listening to gossip.

Her smile had turned wicked

And she did nothing to stop it.

 {}{}{}

 Her grin was a wrinkled

Thin line on her face,

Her mood was now sinister

Which no good cheer could erase.

 {}{}{}

 She thought and she plotted

As what she could do.

Then just as quickly,

From the walls seeped green goo.

 {}{}{}

 “Oh, this is fun,”

She said with a sneer.

“But I can do better

As long as I’m here.”

 {}{}{}

 Then from the kitchen,

A pot started to fly.

“There’ll be more to come

Since I just stopped by.”

 {}{}{}

 The pot struck his head,

She howled with such laughter.

“Ah! A direct hit!!

Now THAT’S what I’m after.”

 {}{}{}

 He looked all around,

His eyes showed much dread.

“Who’s there?” he shouted.

He heard the whisper, “The living dead.”

 {}{}{}

 Paranormal activity

Like he’d never seen,

Made him wish he’d never heard of

October’s Halloween!

 {}{}{}

 He ran from the house;

He ran from the room.

But he couldn’t outrun

His fate: his doom.

 {}{}{}

 The last thought he had

Fled to his wife.

“I’m sorry my love,

For taking your life.”

 {}{}{}

 And the shrieking continued

Long into the night,

Until his body was found

At dawn’s early light.
